Description: A firsthand account of a solo circumnavigation of Antarctica by a modern Moitessier--displaying rare skill in both skippering his boat and then poetically recounting his adventures.
Review Quotes: This book chronicles what it s like to sail alone around Antarctica, as far south as a boat can sail. This modern Moitessier sailed his 50-foot 'Aluminum Red Truck' (his words!) around the most desolate place on Earth. Okay, it is not a trip everyone wants to make, but it sure is one every sailor will want to read about. This book will prove to be a classic sailing story. A great read!
